Geraldine “Gerry” l. Claus, 90, entered eternal rest on Sunday, August 16, 2026, under the professional care of Spartanburg Regional Hospice Home.

Gerry, as she was affectionately known, was born in Detroit, Michigan. She was the daughter of the late Joseph E. Pastor and the late Trease Patrick Pastor. She was also preceded in death by her late husband, Bernhardt Claus.

Gerry was the previous owner of Spartan Industrial Sales before her retirement. She was a loving wife, mother, and grandmother. She was loved by everyone that had the pleasure of meeting her and will be greatly missed by her loved ones and friends.

Gerry was a loving and caring lady that believed in helping others. That is why the family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you for memorial contributions made in Gerry’s memory to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, t2t.org; or to St. Jude Children’s Hospital. Stjude.org/proma
